Within this unconquered territory, formerly enslaved mothers and fathers and Seminole families had lived side by side for generations, building communities in the interior, beyond the reach of the growing United States. But in 1835, after nearly two decades of relative peace following then-General Andrew Jackson's successful campaign to push the Floridians deeper into the area's wilderness, the young country again took up arms against them. The United States now sought to forcibly remove all Indigenous people and return their allies to slavery. In the face of this terror, tribal nations and bands of the formerly enslaved came together across ethnic lines to preserve their freedom from federal interference.
